Chapter 264 Win

Alex frowned when he saw Sherry and Kyle released their flame entirely. He wondered whether he needed to recall them or not. He shook his head.

At the very least, even if they were targeted, they wouldn't be targeted like a Pure Fire user like him. Sherry's and Kyle's power was needed in this battle.

He wanted to decrease Zhou's soldier number as much as possible. If their reinforcement came, but the army had become so small. They might retreat.

He decided to gamble at this moment. He would let Sherry and Kyle go rampage on this way to stop the war sooner. Of course, this decision came with risks as he might be targeted by Zhou Kingdom's soldiers.

Although he might get fewer Gacha Tickets and EXPs, it was better than prolonging the fight. After all, it wasn't a good idea to confront the whole 500 Martial Lords. Even him, couldn't do so, because of the limited resources.

He was wondering if he should make an army later. But, even with all spirits in summoning gacha. There would only be a hundred of them. After all, if he built an army from random people, he might need to add them to Spirit Nest, and that would reveal his secret.

Or maybe he should make a giant weapon, capable of massacring many.

"System, can I get EXPs and Gacha Tickets with mass murder weapon?"

[Yeah, you can. But there is some requirement to do so. First, you need to buy the weapon entirely, without no one infusing their money in them. Second, if you want to build a weapon like that yourself. Please make sure you are the one who creates it, not hire someone to build it for you.]

"... The second requirement is pretty harsh as I'm not a Forging Master. There's no way I could do it by myself. As for the first requirement, I think it is possible. I have too much money.

"Currently, I have thirty five million and in the future... I don't know. The only problem is where I can buy those weapons. Don't tell me, you have them, System?"

[I wanted to say yes, but I'm afraid I don't have it, Host]

"Such a shame." Alex sighed, a bit disappointed. In this war, he realized that he couldn't fight a hundred thousand enemies at once. Even if he killed a portion of them at a time, it would take too long.

If he had an army or a mass murder weapon, he would be able to gather EXPs and Gacha Tickets more effectively. Sadly, he didn't have them for the moment.

Alex was killing the soldiers this entire time while chatting with his system. He could leisurely do this because Greg protected him.

After an hour, they finally managed to kill all of them.

The glasses guy panicked when he saw Alex's group killed a group of a hundred Grandmasters in an hour. He wanted to send more soldiers. But Alex beat him.

Anna and the others immediately flew toward the battlefield. Alex and Greg didn't move from their position as Alex could snipe them with his spear from this place.

Alex tried to kill important-looking people on the battlefield as many as possible while his spirits were rampaging on the battlefield.

Alex warned Leoz not to say anything to them and treated them like strangers. The battlefield shifted even further to Southern Kingdom's favor.

After a long hard battle, the curtain for today's battle finally closed as the sun had set. Fighting in the dark was a bit foolish even though the Southern Kingdom had the momentum.

Zhou Kingdom lost around ten thousand Soldiers in today's battle alone. It was far higher than the sum of their casualty from three previous days.

Alex looked at the loose cultivators, or even soldiers cut the heads of the soldiers for bounty. He didn't do that, though. Alex didn't care about their bounty as he could make such a sum easily.

Anna and the rest retreated from the battle to the forest. After the long fight, Putri decided to visit Alex. With his sudden appearance, the Southern Kingdom's managed to get an even bigger momentum than they should get because of him killing many captains.

Looking at the green haired beauty, Alex smiled. "Senior Sister."

"Alex, why are you here? You should be cultivating inside Death Forest for another month. How do you know? Did Master or Senior Sister Song Yu know you came here?" She grabbed him first before asking so many questions.

"Ahem, Senior Sister, you should calm down first."

"..." She took a deep breath after she heard him.

After seeing her expression, Alex answered, "First of all, no one knows me coming to this place. I came here after I heard about the war. Well, I have some grudges to settle with them anyway.

"As for why I know about this war, just say I have my own way. That's why I will be helping you in this war."

"I... Thank you." Putri wanted to reprimand him, but she couldn't as her heart felt grateful because of his support. "Then, let me guide you to the town."

Alex shook his head, "I'm sorry, but I will stay in this forest."

"Wh-!" She wanted to ask 'Why,' but she suddenly shut her mouth as she recalled why Alex rejected her. She thought she should repair the relationship between Alex and her fiance as well as her friends.

"Anyway, I think we should end this war as soon as possible because the battle will become harder as time goes on."

"You... you know?" Putri was shocked.

"If it is about their reinforcement, yeah, I know." Alex nodded.

"We... we also know about this. According to the information, there are numerous Martial Lords from their side. Many of our cities have been destroyed by them.

"Unfortunately, we don't know their position, so we didn't send our Martial Lords here for the time being. We are afraid they have arrived but waiting for us to exhaust ourselves.

"Our plan is to kill all of them with this army while most of our Martial Lords are inside the city, ready to move out if needed."

"How many Martial Lords are inside the city?"

"One hundred," Putri answered. This information should be a secret in a time like this. But because she trusted Alex, she told him without thinking.

Of course, Alex won't betray her. When he heard that number, he immediately frowned, "... Are you sure that's all?"

Putri tilted her head in confusion. She was wondering why Alex asked this question. She answered, "Yes, the number should be right."

"..." Alex sighed, "I think you should increase the number as much as possible."

"Why?" Putri frowned.

"You are getting attacked by a hundred thousand soldiers. Five hundred of them are Martial Lords, with twenty thousand Martial Grandmasters, and the rest of them are Martial Masters.

"On the battlefield, there should be fifty thousand, and their number had been reduced to around thirty five thousand. The rest of the fifty thousand soldiers are destroying your city one after another. According to the power level of the soldiers on the battlefield.

"You could assume that all of their reinforcement are elites. I'm sure they must have casualties, but with their power, they should retain at least seventy percent of their number." Alex decided to tell her the number as well as his thoughts.

He didn't have the confidence to confront those numbers by himself. If the Southern Kingdom got destroyed by Zhou Kingdom, he wouldn't know what Putri will do. So, he decided to tell her the truth so they can prepare for it.

"What? How did you know? Is that true?" Putri panicked when she heard the number, especially when she knew the Martial Lord's number. Even her kingdom didn't have that many Martial Lords.

"I have my source. Anyway, it is trustable and accurate," Alex shrugged his shoulder, refusing to tell her.

"I... I will inform the kingdom about this so they could send more Martial Lords. No, this is a national crisis already. This battle might decide the fate of this nation! Alex will go now, you stay safe," Putri flew off hurriedly.

"Are you sure about telling her that information, Alex?" Anna came to him and asked.

To respond to this question, Alex only gave her another question, "Do you have the confidence to fight five hundred Martial Lords as well as their army?"

"If you have all SR and UR spirits and all of us reach Martial Lord level, we can reduce their number bit by bit. From my observation, we can kill all of them in two weeks to a month.

"But if you ask me now. Then we can't. Especially with our strength now, we might not be able to kill a 6-star or 7-Star Martial Lords even with Leoz.

"Leoz might be able to handle a few 5-Star Martial Lords. Fabio and I should be able to fight 4-Star Martial Lord. But I'm not confident if I need to fight three of them.

"If we meet the 7-Star Martial Lord, all we can do is escape," Anna explained their fighting ability casually.

"Yeah, that's the answer. We need the Southern Kingdom to kill most of the soldiers. I am satisfied if we can kill around ten percent of their number. With that, I should get around two thousand Tickets."

"Don't underestimate us, Alex. Even though we are only a small group, we are far stronger than your average cultivator. We should be able to kill ten thousand soldiers in this war. Of course, if the enemy didn't run away, though." Anna pouted.

"Haha, even with twenty spirits, we could conquer an entire kingdom for you if you want." She added.

"Haha... thanks, but I don't need it. I don't have experience in managing a kingdom, so it is futile to do so. Even if I need to manage a kingdom, I will just entrust it to someone I trust," Alex said with a smile.

When Anna heard that, her eyes widened. She shook her head helplessly while smiling. She thought, 'Even in this life, he is still the same. That is the reason why Korzan didn't come here even though he is the strongest spirit beside Alex, the previous spirit king.

'He is the one who is capable of managing the entire planet... our home, the real Spirit Nest, Aujla. I am wondering what he will do when you know that you are a king of an entire planet.

'No, the answer is obvious, he will just entrust it to Korzan again. We adore him as our eternal king, and we will do everything for him. Only because of this absolute trust, he can entrust a whole planet to a single spirit.'

...

On the battlefield, another reinforcement came to aid Zhou Kingdom's side. They used the darkness to conceal themself through the battlefield before going to the forest so they could hide and make a pincer attack later.

They consisted of two thousand soldiers, with ten Martial Lords, five hundred Martial Grandmasters, and 1500 Martial Masters.

When they saw the demoralized troops, they immediately frowned. The troops were reduced so much.

"My lo- My lord!" The glasses guy who escaped continuously from Alex's spear immediately greeted them.

"Are you the one in charge? What happened? Why don't I see the presence of Martial Lords? Immediately explain!" One of the Martial Lord said with killing intent.

"Ye-yes! We have three Martial Lords, but the enemy killed them yesterday. It demoralized our troops, and we suffered a disastrous defeat today. They managed to kill ten thousand of us in a day."

"What? Who killed our Martial Lords? How many Martial Lords are on their side?"

"..."

"Hurry up and say it!"

"They... they have two, and Martial Lords had killed one of them from our side. But, when they wanted to kill the second one, they perished in his hand."

"What did you say?!" One of them snarled while the rest of the Martial Lords immediately released their killing intent.
